Uri, who blogs as Israel Muse, beat out a pack of bloggers who all posted excellent commentaries, podcasts and videos.

HonestReporting CEO Joe Hyams, who was one of the competition’s judges, said:

HonestReporting is all about getting supporters of Israel engaged online – we are proud to have sponsored an effort getting some of the best bloggers working even harder to generate great content. I hope we have facilitated greater exposure for them, and inspired more readers to frequent those blogs. In the big picture, we need to drive awareness of the value that comes with exposing the best content to those “beyond the choir.”

A big thanks also to IsraellyCool for spearheading the blogoff. I hope we can do it again next year.

Palestine will be free
from the river to the sea
as free as Gaza, the one party state
where to speak against Hamas is to seal your fate
as free as a woman of the Taliban
who can only breathe if her owner says she can
as free as a Bishop in Teheran
who can choose between a bullet or conversion to Islam
as free as Rafik Hariri was to crticize Hizballah
til they blew him and 21 others up to Allah
as free as a donkey, explosives strapped to its back
sent by Hamas in a donky-ish attack
as free as a sheep without any water
stuffed in a boot ’til the ritual slaughter
as free as Gilad six years alone
denied Red Cross visits and a word from home
as free as a cronies of Arafat or Abbas
to pocket billions of donor cash
Yes Palestine will be free
from the river to the sea
